We had planned a brunch at Aunt Rachel’s and a visit to the National Zoo for Mother’s day, but Isaac had a rough night the night before and we all needed some rest! We stuck around the house and had a nice relaxing day playing on the deck and barbecuing. I just had to include…
And Happy New Year! We had a fantastic Christmas, with Emily and Andy coming to visit. Isaac loved the attention, loved having new people to read to him, and loved the extra cuddles. It was so much fun having a houseful of family! Maybe next year Katie, Kyle and the kiddos and Ben can all…
Isaac’s love for men of all ages really makes it easy to get the annual shot with Santa :). Last year, he wasn’t thrilled to meet ole’ Saint Nick, but this year he ran up to Santa, climbed up on the bench eagerly, and hopped right into the old man’s lap. He was enjoying himself…
We had a lovely day. Lots of good food, plenty of pie, and friends and family to spend the day with. Isaac refused to take a nap, so he barely made it through dinner before he fell apart and needed to head to bed. He sure played hard, though! Chillin’ with the fellas: Playing with…
We never made it to the pumpkin farm this year, just to the local “patch”, aka pumpkins on pallets at the neighborhood farm stand. Still, Isaac was enthralled with the rows of brightly colored pumpkins, and enjoyed chasing Daddy around the lot. He was not a fan of posing for pictures, or smiling for the…
The weekend before Isaac’s birthday (yes, I’m posting backwards in time), we were lucky enough to spend two days at the Gaylord National Resort in National Harbor. Thanks to my wonderful mom, who won us the getaway, we had a lovely time and a really relaxing weekend! Mom and Rachel babysat while Isaac was sleeping,…
We had beautiful weather for Easter. Perfect weather for a family photo! Out of about a hundred tries, we got ONE where all three of us were looking at the camera. Whew, it is a lot harder to get Isaac to look at the camera than it used to be. Forget about smiling, lol. I…
Emily left yesterday, Mom left this morning, and I’m sitting here feeling just a little bit sad that our Christmas holiday is over :(. Okay, maybe a lot sad. It was so nice to have everyone here! I wish Isaac could see his grandmother and aunts and uncles more than once or twice a year.…
…Isaac developed a healthy case of stranger danger. Poor Mimi was rewarded with screams and sobs when she got off the plane on Saturday, and since then he wants to have me within arm’s reach at all times when anyone new is around. He warmed up to her pretty quickly, though, playing and smiling and…
